Arya has a long way to go but is already planning riding bicycles with his friends

Dad Ade said: “He ate like he had no sense of being full. Every time he had two packets of noodles and two eggs. More than half a kilo of chicken and then there was rice. This could be four to six times a day.

“The saddest thing was watching Arya try to get up. He would get out of breath just walking five metres. We were very worried.”

It was only when their son’s health reached a near critical condition that Ade and mum Rokayah Soemantri accepted their son needed urgent help.

Arya has a long way to go but is already planning what he will do once he loses more weight.

He said: “I’m going to play with my friends in the pool, play football and ride bicycles.”
